Property Description for 140 East 63rd Street, 13-D

Historic Prewar Duplex Condominium with Two Terraces and Exceptional Light

Perched on the 13th and 14th floors of the iconic Barbizon/63, this sun-filled, 2,940-square-foot three-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath duplex is the perfect blend of classic prewar elegance and modern luxury. With four exposures and two private terraces, the home is wrapped in natural light and sweeping city views.

A gracious entry foyer with built-in storage and a stylish powder room opens into a stunning corner living room with oversized casement windows and direct access to both terraces-ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying the skyline. Off the living room, French doors lead to the dining room or a family room/den. The renovated features sleek granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and high-end appliances including a Sub-Zero refrigerator and Miele cooktop and oven.

Upstairs, a dramatic windowed staircase with double-height ceilings leads to the private bedroom wing. The corner primary suite offers two oversized custom closets and a windowed spa-like marble bath with radiant heated floors, double vanity, and a sunlit shower. One of the closets is currently outfitted as a windowed home office. The second bedroom suite includes its own walk-in closet and en-suite bathroom, while the generously scaled third bedroom has easy access to another full bathroom just off the hall. A dedicated laundry closet with washer and dryer adds convenience and both floors are accessible by elevator.

Additional features include Crestron smart home controls, individual room climate control, soaring beamed ceilings, and exquisite prewar detailing throughout.

Originally built in 1927 as a residential hotel for women, the Barbizon has been home to cultural icons including Grace Kelly, Liza Minnelli, and Sylvia Plath. Converted to a luxury condominium in 2005, the landmarked building offers full-service white-glove amenities including a 24-hour doorman and concierge, resident lounge with catering kitchen and screening room, business center, and a private entrance to Equinox (which retains the original Barbizon pool).

Located on a quiet, tree-lined block between Third and Lexington, Barbizon/63 offers the best of both Midtown and the Upper East Side. Moments from Central Park, Bloomingdale's, Madison Avenue boutiques, Museum Mile, and multiple subway lines (N/Q/R/W, 4/5/6, F), making this an extraordinary opportunity in one of Manhattan's most coveted neighborhoods.

Upper East Side | Manhattan

Quick Profile

Exuding a cosmopolitan, refined air that is reminiscent of Paris or other European cities, the Upper East Side (the UES, to local cognoscenti) has a reputation as being a bastion of wealth and privilege. Even though it was built by American “royalty” families like the Vanderbilts, Roosevelts, Kennedys, Carnegies and Rockefellers, whose elaborate mansions once anchored Fifth Avenue, there are affordable housing options throughout the neighborhood. The further east you move, away from Central Park and the more commercial avenues, the more likely you are to find quiet, tree-lined streets with historic townhouses and brownstones. Keep your eye out for reasonably priced apartments in pre-war low-rise and even a few high-rise buildings.

With abundant, beautifully landscaped green spaces, including the oasis of Central Park acting like a backyard, the area is quiet and lushly green. You can relax and unwind in John Jay Park, Carl Schurz Park or take a stroll along the East River Promenade. The whole neighborhood seems isolated from the workaday chaos of the city at large. Add to that the history of the neighborhood and the abundance of cultural institutions, and you have a uniquely welcoming neighborhood.

Known for its abundance of high-end retail shopping, especially on Madison Avenue, the Upper East Side is host to the Barneys New York flagship department store. Here you can find upscale goods, fashion and home decor items. You will also find the edgy runway-inspired Alexander McQueen collections. If you are dying to treat your feet to red-soled opulence, be sure to visit the Christian Louboutin boutique. These are only a small sampling of this high-end shopper’s paradise that features everything from designer boutiques that offer the ultimate in haute couture to resale shops where you can find last season’s best on sale at hefty discounts .

There are many unique dining experiences, from fine dining to the casual bite-on-the-go, awaiting you in the UES. Sushi is going through a renaissance in the city, and the best omakase-style sushi can be found at Sasabune on E 73rd Street. Omakase sushi means that you leave the choice of ingredients, preparation method and presentation to the chef. Elegant French cuisine can be experienced at JoJo, E 64th Street, housed in gorgeous townhouse. Just for fun, visit the Lexington Candy Shop on Lexington Avenue, to get a taste of an old-fashioned soda fountain.
